The Metalfab Live Bin consists of a round metal bin with a single baffle supported immediately above the outlet. The bin and its entire contents are vibrated horizontally in response to the forces of the unbalanced weights of the vibrator. The Live Bin comes with its own support frame and, like the Bin Activator and the Posibin, the Live Bin will insure the uninterrupted flow of material without bridging or rat holing upon demand. Metalfab Live Bins are ideally suited for both sanitary and pressure applications since there is no gap to be closed off between a non-vibrated and a vibrated section. Sizes range from 3 cu. ft. to 100 cu. ft. capacities.
